In the United States, a pint is 16 US fluid ounces (473 mL). However, the typical conical pint glass holds 16 oz. to its rim. With a half inch of foam, the actual liquid fill is roughly 14 oz.
The reason for the discrepancy is that the shot measurement is not standard throughout the world. In the United States, a shot is 1.5 fluid ounces. Since 1 pint is equal to 16 ounces, dividing 16 by 1.5 produces a result of 10.6. In England, however, a shot is only about 0.84 of a fluid ounce, and in Italy, a shot is the equivalent of 1.35 fluid ounces. When 16 ounces is divided by those respective shot sizes, the result varies.
